Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is increasingly becoming a part of all critical infrastructures, and thus there is an increasing need to include ICT in all risk assessments. This chapter explains the dependencies between ICT and other infrastructures and provides an overview of the threats...

This report maps the possibilities and challenges which combined simulation and optimization offers. This is done by establishing a common understanding of this technique through description of the important characteristics and the practical significance.   The first section of the report builds the...

...cells. We have developed a reliable method, using thin gold wires, to measure the interfacial contact resistance between the bipolar plate material and the porous transport layer during fuel cell operation. The ICR values were found to be in the same range as the ICR values measured ex situ after fuel...

...strength in an aqueous environment as a result of its designed, biphasic morphology and displays many of the qualities required in a PEM. The new ionomer membrane thus shows good proton conductivity (63 mS cm–1 at 80 °C and 100% RH), while retaining mechanical integrity under high temperature, hydrated conditions...

LivingAll project in the area Housing and the Built Environment. The paper attempts to give some explanations of why most users still find that the builit environemt is largely inaccessible to people with disabilities - despite the fact that there has been, and still is considerable activity on all adminstratibe...

This chapter describes how intelligence in general and intelligent goods may support transport in intermodal networks. Intermodal transport is like a race where each leg depends on one another. The individual operator's role in the intermodal network is to facilitate the next leg for the next transport...
